 Odd Road Works - Robin O'Reliant
When I worked for a London Borough back in the eighties the council laid about 300 yards of new paving flags along one stretch of road. Come the following Monday morning the whole lot had disappeared, residents saying how a group of "Workmen" had appeared over the weekend and took the lot. Nobody thought it was in anyway suspicious, I suppose being used to seeing a road tarmacked and then shortly afterwards being dug up by one of the utilities to lay pipes or cables, something not uncommon back then.
